Someone was SUPER impressed by the Tide's 0 wins over currently-ranked opponents.

[Derwood]

Illinois vs. PSU is going to be super annoying, I'm thinking

[NOLA]

I'm going to get some perverse joy out of seeing Duke roll it up on Miami.

Damn, am I tired of Palmer and Musberger.

 

Tennessee just needs to duplicate what Prescott did all night.

Mark Mangino removed from offensive coordinator position at ISU, presumably with the jaws of life

He actually hasn't been removed yet as they are still waiting to demolish a wall for him to exit from.

Jerry Kill retiring effective immediately. That sucks.

No need. He can just do it himself like his idol: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1820419-this-gif-of-andy-reid-as-the-kool-aid-guy-is-entrancing

Sucks when one of the really good guys is forced to retire in an industry like this. Should have happened to someone else.

He's one of my favorite coaches ever. One of the nicest dudes you can meet too, and he was as genuine as they come. Hopefully his health improves.

One of the fans on the Gameday set has a big cut-out head that looks like Da Bum.

JT Barrett arrested for DUI......whoopsy

LOL JK

Oklahoma State and Texas Tech are playing a typical Big 12 game.

Minnesota, that last :17 was about as bad as it gets for clock management.

[Guest]

Minnesota just butchered the end of the Michigan game. They think they have a TD with 19 seconds left but replay correctly ruled the guy down at the 1/2 yard line with a 1st and goal for Minnesota.

 

Minnesota is lined up after the spot the ball so it appears like they're ready to snap it. Instead, they shift formations as the clock is running and snap the ball with 7 seconds left and throw an incomplete pass with 3 seconds left. They also still had a timeout but didn't use it. They then went for the TD (this decision is fine), didn't get it and lost.

 

They should have had 3 shots at the end zone (or 4 if they were going to go for it on 4th down). Instead, they got 2.

[UMFan83]

Still getting over that win but Duke/Miami ending is even stranger

[NewUserName]

All game long it just felt like Minnesota was going to win. They seemed like they were getting all the breaks. Michigan dropped a pick 6, qb was injured on a play that shockingly wasn't called targeting. Minnesota caught a couple of lucky deep balls. Then bam, the last 17 secs happened.

[bcl412]

So Miami pulled a Cal/Stanford against Duke? This season's been weird.

Some of those blocks were great too.

What a wild day. It's always the weeks that don't look like much
